William Reynolds was crossing two elementary school children in the driveway of the 7-Eleven on Wekiva Springs Road, east of Fox Valley Drive in unincorporated Longwood when William Anthony Vindigni, 36, walked up and struck Reynolds in the face, deputies said.

The children were not injured.

Vindigni left on foot but was located by deputies at the intersection of Palm Springs and Wekiva Springs roads, authorities said.

Deputies said Vindigni resisted arrest, but was eventually taken into custody.

Vindigni grabbed and pinched a deputy on the back of her leg during the incident, an arrest report said.
